With fighting raging around Khan Younis and in the north of Gaza, a video has emerged on social media showing dozens of Palestinian men detained by Israel.

    This my friend is called common sense and basic empathy. You know empathy not only towards Israelis, but also towards Palestinians. Because every life matters no matter the religion, colour, ethnicity, etc.

      Ok so you’re missing my point. If there are two groups of people living side by side and one group decide to murder 10 people from the other group, you’re trying to say it’s immoral if the other group kills more than 10??? Am I getting this insanity correct? We skip over the whole deciding to murder 10 people in the first place and we start our ethical counters only once the retaliating group hits what the original murderers deem as reasonable retribution? If it’s overstepped, now is when the immorality begins? This has the most removed parts of eye for an eye written all over it. No man has the moral judgment for eye for an eye to be functional. Of course lots of people think they do and then fail to understand why others think they were unreasonable in their retaliation.

        Two groups of people living side by side? Way to omit 75 years of suffering in a single stroke.

        Suck my Wang indeed.

          My point still stands. As long as retribution must be dished out there will be no peace. Doesn’t matter who started it or how long ago it started. The thing that matters most is that both sides act in good faith today and move towards peace. Your comment only focuses on pay back. I’m not saying these things don’t matter at all simply that they are less important than acting in good faith and moving towards peace
